^CHe's ^Gfive ^Cfoot-two^Am, and he's six feet-four, ^FHe fi^Gghts wit^Ch missiles and with spears. ^FHe's all^G of thi^Crty-on^Ame, and he's only seventeen, Be^Fen a soldie^Gr for a thousand years.

^CHe'a a Catholi^Gc, a Hind^Cu, an ^AmAtheist, a Jain, ^FA Buddhist ^Gand a^C Baptist and a Jew. An^Fd he know^Gs he shouldn't kill, An^Cd he ^Amknows he always will, ^FKill you for m^Ge my friend and me for you.

^CAnd he'^Gs fighting for Canada, ^CHe's fig^Amhting for France, He's f^Fighting^C for the USA, And ^Fhe's figh^Gting for the Russians, An^Cd he'^Ams fighting for Japan, An^Fd he thinks w^Ge'll put an end to war this way.

^CAnd he'^Gs fighting for Democracy, ^CHe's fi^Amghting for the Reds, He s^Fays it's ^Gfor the peace of all. He's^F the ^Gone who must decide, Who'^Cs to live^Am and who's to die, And he ^Fnever sees th^Ge writing on the wall.

^CBut withou^Gt him,How would Hitler ha^Cve co^Amndemned him at Dachau' With^Fout him Caesar^G would have stood alone, He's^C the one ^Gwho gives his body As^C a weap^Amon of the war, An^Fd without h^Gim all this killing can't go on.

He'^Cs the^G Univers^Cal So^Amldier and he really is to blame, Hi^Fs orders ^Gcome from far away no more, Th^Cey co^Gme fr^Com he^Amre and there and you and me, And br^Cothers ^Amcan't you see, Th^Fis is not^G the way we put the end to war.
